Highly recommend Karter School! My daughter started Karter School about a year ago (her first school) and she loves it. The teachers and staff are friendly and supportive. Always greeted with a smile from everyone during drop-off and pick-up. They have an excellent Pre-School program, with many enrichments throughout the day. Best part is when my daughter comes home from school excited to share what she has learned. Having pictures and updates throughout the day helps to know that my daughter is enjoying her time. Karter School has been amazing and they have taken lots of safety measures to ensure everyone is safe during this pandemic. GO KARTER SCHOOL!

Highly recommend Karter School! My daughter did a drama class with Ms. Gianna and it was everything we could have wanted! The positive energy and the self confidence that was built for my daughter was priceless. Ms Gianna brought the best out of my daughter and she can’t wait to participate in the next class and show!

We have been with Karter in Sterling since September of 2019 and I would highly recommend! We have two boys that are currently enrolled in the preschool programs and we absolutely love the environment, the teachers, enrichment leads and the administration leaders. They always impress me with their passion. The communication from the admin staff and teachers is always clear and effective. My boys love school and that speaks volumes about the entire team.
